Renewable Energy – Sources That Never Get Exhausted

As you can see, there are various renewable energy sources available to us as an alternative to fossil fuels. There are many advantages to them among the most popular being that they will not deplete in supply, meaning they will be around forever. Renewable energy sources are not new. They have been utilized in some way for many years. Unfortunately, low fossil fuel prices have stunted renewable energy’s popularity and growth in the United States. But an increasing awareness of human and environmental concerns, as well as, a need to find non-exhaustible energy sources, will keep it as a mainstay for the future.

“Most companies that generate bioenergy using pyrolysis view biochar as merely a byproduct burned to offset fossil fuel use,” he says. But if biochar is incorporated into the soil instead, “this sequestration offers the chance to turn bioenergy into a carbon-negative industry.”

40 scholars from Valencia town complete 8-day Energy Camp 2009

EDC’s Energy Camp has already garnered accolades not only from the scholars’ parents and the company’s host communities and local government units, but more so from the prestigious Public Relations Society of the Philippines’ (PRSP) Anvil Awards and the International Association of Business Communicators’ (IABC) Gold Quill Awards for being more than just a one-time PR project, said Ariola.

It has become a sustainable program that creates lasting results on the beneficiaries’ growth and development.

This year, EDC will have seven Energy Camps for the scholars in its geothermal sites in Valencia, Negros Oriental (two camps); Bacon-Manito, Sorsogon; Tongonan, Leyte (two camps), Kidapawan, North Cotabato (two camps), including one for the teachers in the company’s host schools.

A total of 382 residents of the company’s host communities (220 scholars, 44 teachers and 118 children of EDC employees) will benefit from this project.

Future energy sources pushed

Development of alternative energy sources shows promise as projects start to move from laboratory to “out-in-the-world” trials, researchers at a conference said Wednesday.

Speakers at the Alternative Energy 2009 conference Wednesday at LSU outlined a number of emerging technologies with promise.

Solar power for less than $2 a day

Imagine a solar panel as affordable as a fancy new bicycle. A panel designed so simply that you can install one (or more) yourself, just outside your windows, in the course of an afternoon.

That’s the concept behind Oakland, Calif.-based Veranda Solar, a start-up founded last year by Capra J’neva and Emilie Fetscher, recent graduates of the product design program at Stanford University. J’neva and Fetscher dreamed up attractive, flower-shaped solar panels as part of their master’s project at the design school. “We created a starter solar system that expands as your budget does,” J’neva says.

Adage Graphics Selects DURST as New Eco-Friendly Printer, Price Cutter

All the inks used by the DURST, including white, are VOC-free. That means that they do not contain volatile organic compounds such as hydrocarbons, ketones, or formaldehyde. In other words, they are safe for the environment. By printing the inks directly onto a substrate, instead of onto paper which is then adhered to the substrate, the amount of media used is reduced. Production time is also reduced so more units can be turned around in less time, further reducing costs.

Here’s a hot idea: SVSU creates solar oven to sanitize compost

The oven, built of plywood and fiberglass insulation, is powered by a funnel-like array of reflective mylar that focuses sunlight into the top of the box through a window of double-paned glass.
The contraption is angled toward the sun with brackets and mounted on a cart with wheels, so it can be adjusted throughout the day.
Altogether, the oven cost about $300 to build. Roekle is working on a portable, low-cost unit that could be used at campgrounds, instead of propane and charcoal.
